Device Description

The Fix2Lock (Bioabsorbable bone anchor) is an absorbable bone fixation screw that fixes soft tissues such as ligament, tendon, and the articular capsules to bone, and is used in orthopedic surgery.

This product consists of an absorbable and/or non-absorbable suture and driver shaft and handle.

AI/ML Overview

The furnished document is an FDA 510(k) Premarket Notification for the medical device "Fix2Lock". This document is a clearance letter, not a study report for an AI/ML medical device. It pertains to a bone fixation screw and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested in the prompt regarding:

  • Acceptance criteria and reported device performance for an AI/ML model.
  • Sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Data provenance.
  • Number or qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment.
  • Adjudication methods.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness study details.
  • Standalone algorithm performance.
  • Types of ground truth.
  • How ground truth for training data was established.

The document discusses non-clinical bench tests to verify the subject device's design specifications and compliance with various ASTM and ISO standards for materials, mechanical performance, sterilization, and packaging. This is for a physical implantable device, not a software algorithm.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
